Most people have those drilled and tapped into the block. There should be the same places to do so.

Should be a boss on the block for drilling the upper hole. Two holes will suffice to hold the alternator

yep, I always ran my Formula with the bottom alt bolt out, it got in the way of the shortbelt mod when I was at the track.
